AnnotationService users in Peterborough are now choosing their own care providers. This article looks at how the independent living support service (ILSS) works. Peterborough NHS, the local primary care trust (PCT) is responsible for commissioning adult health and social care in the city, and has been influenced by guidance from In Control as well as the government's Putting People First agenda. Access to ILSS is through schemes such as an advocacy pilot run by Age Concern Peterborough. (RH).
